Indeed it is a great editor. About my only complaint has been the
miserable text field size for the Find and Replace window, it not
being re-sizable. I have even corresponded with one of the makers
of this software and he found it hard to understand why anyone
would want it bigger. I did come across one or two others
earthlings who understood though... anyway, such a miserable
complaint is not a great minus for this excellent software.
